A study examining the effectiveness of COVID-19 vaccines has been published in an external academic journal. According to reports from The Independent and NBC News, the research appeared on Tuesday after it was blocked from publication in a government health journal by the acting director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
The decision to block the study from official government channels preceded its appearance in an alternative venue. While both news outlets confirm that the findings are now available through an independent outlet, they do not provide specific details regarding the contents of the research or the reasons cited for the initial blockage by the acting director. The publication follows a period during which the data was excluded from government publications.
